Picture Perfect Cards

You all know I am on a mission to try and use up some of my Designer Series Paper before this catalogue ends. I bought 2 packs of the Picture Perfect Party 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and have probably only used one of the designs. Sooo, I have Loved it and Chopped it (Thank you Kylie Bertucci) and yesterday I created three different designs which I can use with all of the co-ordinating cardstock colours, except maybe Peekaboo Peach because I have used nearly all of that card stock. I am going to share the three different designs with you over a few days but believe me they are literally under 5 minute cards. The first card might even take less time than that. I cut the Designer Series Paper 6″ x 6″ sheets into 3″ x 6″ sheets (I had done this previously) and then after selecting the paper I wanted to use, I cut the 3″ x 6″ sheets in half again to create two 3″ x 3″ pieces. I attached the designer series paper to Basic Black card and then to Whisper White card. I stamped the greeting from the Perennial Birthday below the designer series paper using the same Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The Whisper White card is then attached to scored and folded Basic Black card. I cut strips of the Designer Series Paper into 10cm x 3cm pieces and got 3 from one 6″ x 6″ piece of Designer Series Paper with another piece left over for another project. (I am on a roll here thinking about all the different ways to use these papers.) The small piece of Designer Series Paper is attached to the bottom of another piece of Whisper White card. I created this card and four more colours – Bermuda Bay, Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist and Peekaboo Peach. Now that I have the design, I am going to precut the cardstock and I will be creating these at night when I am watching TV with my hubby. I hope I have inspired you to use your Designer Series Paper – yes even the ones you cannot bear to use because they are so pretty – because you know what, pretty soon you are going to find something just as pretty to replace it.
